Choosing place
Choose suitable place so that:
- 50mm high horizontal strips are clear on the chimney
- The flange will sit flat and will not sit on cracking protrusions
- There will be enough space to mount the optical heads in the required direction, for cables
- The chimney will not fume on the lenses.

or more M10 thread bars, four spring washers on all sides of the bars and M10
nuts. Extend the M10 threaded bars using M10 union nuts. |
